Hi Dekan, a couple that spring to mind are the sets of vacuum moudings from S H G, a diesel tug they call King Midas, which is around 450mm and last time I saw their catalogue was only £25 including running gear, and a set of accessories at another £15 plus postage. They were also had a Springer type called Sprinter at around £50, all plus postage of course. There was also another set of vacuum mouldings for a tug from I believe it was Model Slipway. Hope thats of some use.Syd

I have not seen any small tugs on the Modelslipway web site... Sarik do the Miniscrew tug which I believe is the same small tug as advertised by Waverly..Kingston mouldings also do a small hull... but I'm after a kit really. SHG is on the list...

re tug neptune tug kit its wellworth the money .u will not be sorry i have had lots of hours of good sailing her .i got bought one for x mas from mywife its a brilliant model.one of the best presents i have been bourght.

It is unfortunate that they have discontinued these (maybe something someone could develop a similar hull ?.. ) , not sure if the hike in the price had anything to do with that but thats life. It is a shame as going by the fun the Ribble club had at the Model Boat Convetion last weekend with their Football match ..See Video. When we saw these a couple of years ago we as a club would have bought about 10 but the price was a bit OTT ish for our lot.

However after last weekend a few of us are looking into the possibilites of making our own , I have the GG book "Small Radio Control Boats" in which are a few designs which I think could be easly rejigged to give a similar boat.
